A post on Tej Pratap's social media account shows him seated on a beach, meditating with his eyes closed. He is wearing a black cap and a Rudraksh rosary around his neck. In his caption, he writes, "Peace is an essential part of life. We constantly seek it, for without peace, our lives can descend into chaos." He adds, "Through meditation and self-reflection, we gain a deeper understanding of our thoughts and emotions, leading to a greater sense of fulfilment and happiness.

In a pinned thread on his social media page, he is seen holding a Shivlinga while a sadhu pours water over it. "Mahadev is the symbol of ultimate truth. To embrace Mahadev is to embrace the deepest, most profound aspect of ourselves. To find peace in the midst of chaos is to find Mahadev," he writes. The location of the temple is not specified. Earlier this month, he had spoken about offering his services during heightened tensions between India and Pakistan.
Meanwhile, Tejashwi has been conducting outreach programmes ahead of the upcoming assembly elections. He has visited several districts including Bhagalpur, Nawada, Nalanda, Saran and Siwan to meet the families of soldiers who died during recent military operations.
On Thursday evening, he visited Bhagalpur to offer condolences to the family of Army jawan Santosh Yadav. According to reports, while his widow initially refused financial assistance, she later accepted it following repeated requests from Tejashwi.
He also visited Banka district, where a 20-year-old Dalit woman was allegedly raped and murdered. There too, Tejashwi provided financial help to the victim's family, as confirmed by a post on his social media account.
